Tokyo 2020 Olympics Games

Tokyo has been chosen to host the 2020 Olympic Games. Members of the Olympic International Committee (IOC) chose Tokyo over Istanbul and Madrid at a meeting in Buenos Aires on Saturday. The final result was 60 votes for Tokyo against 36 for Istanbul in the final round.

Tokyo was seen as the front-runner after finishing third in its bid for the 2016 Games, which was won by Rio de Janeiro. Tokyo campaigned with the message “The Olympics will be safe in our hands”.
